Quickstart: Image Analysis

This article explains how to set up a basic image tagging script by using the Image Analysis REST API or client libraries. The Analyze Image service provides you with AI algorithms for processing images and returning information about their visual features. Follow these steps to install a package to your application and try out the sample code.

Use the Image Analysis client library for C# to analyze an image for content tags. This quickstart defines a method, AnalyzeImageUrl, which uses the client object to analyze a remote image and print the results.

Reference documentation | Library source code | Package (NuGet) | Samples

Tip

You can also analyze a local image. See the ComputerVisionClient methods, such as AnalyzeImageInStreamAsync. Or, see the sample code on GitHub for scenarios involving local images.

Tip

The Analyze Image API can do many different operations other than generate image tags. See the Image Analysis how-to guide for examples that showcase all of the available features.

Prerequisites

  • An Azure subscription. You can create one for free.
  • The Visual Studio IDE or current version of .NET Core.
  • Once you have your Azure subscription, create a Computer Vision resource in the Azure portal to get your key and endpoint. After it deploys, select Go to resource.
    • You need the key and endpoint from the resource you create to connect your application to the Azure AI Vision service.
    • You can use the free pricing tier (F0) to try the service, and upgrade later to a paid tier for production.

Create environment variables

In this example, write your credentials to environment variables on the local machine that runs the application.

Go to the Azure portal. If the resource you created in the Prerequisites section deployed successfully, select Go to resource under Next Steps. You can find your key and endpoint under Resource Management in the Keys and Endpoint page. Your resource key isn't the same as your Azure subscription ID.

To set the environment variable for your key and endpoint, open a console window and follow the instructions for your operating system and development environment.

  • To set the VISION_KEY environment variable, replace <your_key> with one of the keys for your resource.
  • To set the VISION_ENDPOINT environment variable, replace <your_endpoint> with the endpoint for your resource.

Important

If you use an API key, store it securely somewhere else, such as in Azure Key Vault. Don't include the API key directly in your code, and never post it publicly.

For more information about AI services security, see Authenticate requests to Azure AI services.

setx VISION_KEY <your_key>
setx VISION_ENDPOINT <your_endpoint>

After you add the environment variables, you may need to restart any running programs that will read the environment variables, including the console window.

  1. Create a new C# application.

    Using Visual Studio, create a new .NET Core application.

    Install the client library

    After you create a new project, install the client library by right-clicking on the project solution in the Solution Explorer and selecting Manage NuGet Packages. In the package manager that opens select Browse, check Include prerelease, and search for Microsoft.Azure.CognitiveServices.Vision.ComputerVision. Select version 7.0.0, and then Install.

  2. From the project directory, open the Program.cs file in your preferred editor or IDE. Paste in the following code:

    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using Microsoft.Azure.CognitiveServices.Vision.ComputerVision;
    using Microsoft.Azure.CognitiveServices.Vision.ComputerVision.Models;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;
    using System.IO;
    using Newtonsoft.Json;
    using Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;
    using System.Threading;
    using System.Linq;
    
    namespace ComputerVisionQuickstart
    {
        class Program
        {
            // Add your Computer Vision key and endpoint
            static string key = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("VISION_KEY");
            static string endpoint = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("VISION_ENDPOINT");
    
            // URL image used for analyzing an image (image of puppy)
            private const string ANALYZE_URL_IMAGE = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Azure-Samples/cognitive-services-sample-data-files/master/ComputerVision/Images/landmark.jpg";
    
            static void Main(string[] args)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Azure Cognitive Services Computer Vision - .NET quickstart example");
                Console.WriteLine();
    
                // Create a client
                ComputerVisionClient client = Authenticate(endpoint, key);
    
                // Analyze an image to get features and other properties.
                AnalyzeImageUrl(client, ANALYZE_URL_IMAGE).Wait();
            }
    
            /*
             * AUTHENTICATE
             * Creates a Computer Vision client used by each example.
             */
            public static ComputerVisionClient Authenticate(string endpoint, string key)
            {
                ComputerVisionClient client =
                  new ComputerVisionClient(new ApiKeyServiceClientCredentials(key))
                  { Endpoint = endpoint };
                return client;
            }
           
            public static async Task AnalyzeImageUrl(ComputerVisionClient client, string imageUrl)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("----------------------------------------------------------");
                Console.WriteLine("ANALYZE IMAGE - URL");
                Console.WriteLine();
    
                // Creating a list that defines the features to be extracted from the image. 
    
                List<VisualFeatureTypes?> features = new List<VisualFeatureTypes?>()
                {
                    VisualFeatureTypes.Tags
                };
    
                Console.WriteLine($"Analyzing the image {Path.GetFileName(imageUrl)}...");
                Console.WriteLine();
                // Analyze the URL image 
                ImageAnalysis results = await client.AnalyzeImageAsync(imageUrl, visualFeatures: features);
    
                // Image tags and their confidence score
                Console.WriteLine("Tags:");
                foreach (var tag in results.Tags)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine($"{tag.Name} {tag.Confidence}");
                }
                Console.WriteLine();
            }
        }
    }
    

    Important

    Remember to remove the key from your code when you're done, and never post it publicly. For production, use a secure way of storing and accessing your credentials like Azure Key Vault. For more information, see Azure AI services security.

  3. Run the application

    Run the application by clicking the Debug button at the top of the IDE window.

After you add the environment variables, you may need to restart any running programs that will read the environment variables, including the console window.

Analyze image

  1. Create a new Gradle project.

    In a console window (such as cmd, PowerShell, or Bash), create a new directory for your app, and navigate to it.

    mkdir myapp && cd myapp
    

    Run the gradle init command from your working directory. This command creates essential build files for Gradle, including build.gradle.kts, which is used at runtime to create and configure your application.

    gradle init --type basic
    

    When prompted to choose a DSL, select Kotlin.

  2. Install the client library.

    This quickstart uses the Gradle dependency manager. You can find the client library and information for other dependency managers on the Maven Central Repository.

    Locate build.gradle.kts and open it with your preferred IDE or text editor. Then copy and paste the following build configuration into the file. This configuration defines the project as a Java application whose entry point is the class ImageAnalysisQuickstart. It imports the Azure AI Vision library.

    plugins {
        java
        application
    }
    application { 
        mainClass.set("ImageAnalysisQuickstart")
    }
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        implementation(group = "com.microsoft.azure.cognitiveservices", name = "azure-cognitiveservices-computervision", version = "1.0.9-beta")
    }
    
  3. Create a Java file.

    From your working directory, run the following command to create a project source folder:

    mkdir -p src/main/java
    

    Navigate to the new folder and create a file called ImageAnalysisQuickstart.java.

  4. Open ImageAnalysisQuickstart.java in your preferred editor or IDE and paste in the following code.

    import com.microsoft.azure.cognitiveservices.vision.computervision.*;
    import com.microsoft.azure.cognitiveservices.vision.computervision.implementation.ComputerVisionImpl;
    import com.microsoft.azure.cognitiveservices.vision.computervision.models.*;
    
    import java.io.*;
    import java.nio.file.Files;
    
    import java.util.ArrayList;
    import java.util.List;
    import java.util.UUID;
    
    public class ImageAnalysisQuickstart {
    
        // Use environment variables
        static String key = System.getenv("VISION_KEY");
        static String endpoint = System.getenv("VISION_ENDPOINT");
    
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            
            System.out.println("\nAzure Cognitive Services Computer Vision - Java Quickstart Sample");
    
            // Create an authenticated Computer Vision client.
            ComputerVisionClient compVisClient = Authenticate(key, endpoint); 
    
            // Analyze local and remote images
            AnalyzeRemoteImage(compVisClient);
    
        }
    
        public static ComputerVisionClient Authenticate(String key, String endpoint){
            return ComputerVisionManager.authenticate(key).withEndpoint(endpoint);
        }
    
    
        public static void AnalyzeRemoteImage(ComputerVisionClient compVisClient) {
            /*
             * Analyze an image from a URL:
             *
             * Set a string variable equal to the path of a remote image.
             */
            String pathToRemoteImage = "https://github.com/Azure-Samples/cognitive-services-sample-data-files/raw/master/ComputerVision/Images/faces.jpg";
    
            // This list defines the features to be extracted from the image.
            List<VisualFeatureTypes> featuresToExtractFromRemoteImage = new ArrayList<>();
            featuresToExtractFromRemoteImage.add(VisualFeatureTypes.TAGS);
    
            System.out.println("\n\nAnalyzing an image from a URL ...");
    
            try {
                // Call the Computer Vision service and tell it to analyze the loaded image.
                ImageAnalysis analysis = compVisClient.computerVision().analyzeImage().withUrl(pathToRemoteImage)
                        .withVisualFeatures(featuresToExtractFromRemoteImage).execute();
    
    
                // Display image tags and confidence values.
                System.out.println("\nTags: ");
                for (ImageTag tag : analysis.tags()) {
                    System.out.printf("\'%s\' with confidence %f\n", tag.name(), tag.confidence());
                }
            }
    
            catch (Exception e) {
                System.out.println(e.getMessage());
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
        // END - Analyze an image from a URL.
    
    }
    
  5. Navigate back to the project root folder, then build the app with:

    gradle build
    

    Run it with the following command:

    gradle run
    

Output

The output of the operation should look like the following example.

End of quickstart.

Clean up resources

If you want to clean up and remove an Azure AI services subscription, you can delete the resource or resource group. Deleting the resource group also deletes any other resources associated with it.

Next step

In this quickstart, you learned how to install the Image Analysis client library and make basic image analysis calls. Next, learn more about the Analyze Image API features.

Use the Image Analysis REST API to analyze an image for tags.

Tip

The Analyze Image API can do many different operations other than generate image tags. See the Image Analysis how-to guide for examples that showcase all of the available features.

Note

This quickstart uses cURL commands to call the REST API. You can also call the REST API using a programming language. See the GitHub samples for examples in C#, Python, Java, and JavaScript.

Prerequisites

  • An Azure subscription. You can create one for free.
  • Once you have your Azure subscription, create a Computer Vision resource in the Azure portal to get your key and endpoint. After it deploys, select Go to resource.
    • You need the key and endpoint from the resource you create to connect your application to the Azure AI Vision service.
    • You can use the free pricing tier (F0) to try the service, and upgrade later to a paid tier for production.
  • cURL installed.

Analyze an image

To analyze an image for various visual features, do the following steps:

  1. Copy the following command into a text editor.

    curl.exe -H "Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key: <yourKey>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" "https://westcentralus.api.cognitive.microsoft.com/vision/v3.2/analyze?visualFeatures=Tags" -d "{'url':'https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/ai-services/computer-vision/media/quickstarts/presentation.png'}"
    
  2. Make the following changes in the command where needed:

    1. Replace the value of <yourKey> with the key from your Computer Vision resource.
    2. Replace the first part of the request URL (westcentralus.api.cognitive.microsoft.com) with your own endpoint URL.

      Note

      New resources created after July 1, 2019, will use custom subdomain names. For more information and a complete list of regional endpoints, see Custom subdomain names for Azure AI services.

    3. Optionally, change the image URL in the request body (https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/ai-services/computer-vision/media/quickstarts/presentation.png) to the URL of a different image to be analyzed.
  3. Open a command prompt window.

  4. Paste your edited curl command from the text editor into the command prompt window, and then run the command.

Examine the response

A successful response is returned in JSON format. The sample application parses and displays a successful response in the command prompt window, similar to the following example:

   "tags":[
      {
         "name":"text",
         "confidence":0.9992657899856567
